How Can I Determine The Location Of The Page File In My Computer?

[CAG]

I am planning to do a clean installation in my Windows 7 HP 32 bit desktop computer and as part of the process would like to know how to determine the location of the page file and how to make it contiguous.
I would like to be able to increase its size but do not know how to find the location of the setting.

Also, should I update Windows before or after the clean install and should I make the updates automatic or manual?

Lastly, should I put a firewall up first?

I don't think you can set these things up during installation. Just install, Windows will decide something default, and then you can adjust. The location of the settings itself should not be too hard to find.
